Dubbed as the 'Eighth Wonder of the World' The Eden Project is one of the most recommended attractions for tourists to visit whilst staying in Cornwall.

Looe and Polperro; Mevagissey and Fowey; Mousehole; St. Ives and Port Isaac; Tintagel and Boscastle are just a small selection of the old fishing harbours and ports for which Cornwall is renowned for.

Walk sections of the South West Coastal Footpath, 300 miles of which surrond Cornwall. An abundance of beaches are easily accessible throughout the County. Wait to hear the daily weather forecast before making your choice - you are never more than 20 miles from the coast in Cornwall so the width and breadth of the County can be accessed from your selected accommodation. As well as golden sands, Cornwall also offers plenty to occupy the young visitor - Cornwall's Crealy; the Otter Park in North Cornwall; the National Seal Sanctuary in the west of the County or Flambards are just a few of the attractions on offer.
